Brief Description
Typewritten article in blue on textured light-coloured paper, which was published in either the Daily Telegraph or the Spectator (both are handwritten at the top of the page) on August 5th 1868. It speaks of (presumably) the Aboriginal Cricket Team tour in 1868, and refers in most part favourably to the accomplishments of these players, but includes some choice sentences such as "Naturally indolent, they will shirk rather than seek work". This is page one of three.
